Tea & Coffee 11/01 - Cafés Trottet: Half A Century of High Standards (#)

„Cafés Trottet’s are aware of this, so they build their own espresso machines - marketed under the name Leirbag - to brew their coffee. In the company's words, “At Cafés Trottet, the machine is an essential element to prepare an excellent quality coffee, because we believe that the best of coffee can be disappointing if prepared with an ordinary machine.” Ranging in size, their machines run the gamut from espresso pod machines, called CAPS’Café, to professional automatic and semi-automatic machines, percolators and coffee vending machines. Depending on the needs of the client - whether it be a small café or a conference center, Cafés Trottet offers the appropriate machines for the specific types and amounts of coffees and customers. In addition, they offer training for the staff that will be using the machines.“

Tea & Coffee 10/02 - Is the Soluble Coffee Industry A Threat to Themselves? (#)

„One innovation in the double extraction technique is the Battery FIC extractor, where water is introduced at two different stages so as to decrease the overall extraction time while producing two completely separate extract fractions (aroma and hydrolysis). The process is continuous and features batch operated multi-extraction percolators. With the design and operation of the double extraction plant, Niro believes a superior aroma profile is achieved, which makes it ideal for canned coffee production. The total extraction time for this plant is 1/2 - two hours, compared with conventional extraction systems where the total extraction time is typically three - four hours.“

Amazon.com: So You'd Like to... Buy Coffeemakers, Espresso Machines, and Grinders (#)

„As you'll see below, prices run the gamut from $25 or less to almost $2,500. Drips and Percolators In the world of drip and percolated coffee, you can spend anywhere from $25 for a perfectly good pour-over filter coffeemaker (like the 'Melitta ABC10B 10-Cup Aroma Brew Coffeemaker, Black' ) to over $100 for a drip unit you can program to your own specs. The 'Melitta MEMB1W Mill & Brew Coffeemaker, White' , for example, will grind the beans and brew the coffee just as your alarm clock goes off. There's a certain futuristic appeal to this kind of multitasking machine, but then, there's also one more clock to reset any time the power goes out.“

Tea & Coffee 04/04 - Green Mountain Coffee Roasters: Doing Well by Doing Good (#)

„Regardless, he says, “our goal is to get the brewer under $100. But there are over 15 million coffee brewers sold every year, so getting a mere 200,000 Keurig machines out there isn’t asking too much, given the quality and convenience of the coffee.” Stiller sees the Keurig brewer as the high end product (Procter & Gamble and Kraft are selling the lower-end single pod brewers) and as the culmination of a natural evolution from percolators to automatic drip to single-serving brewers. And, he emphasizes, there is no flavor contamination between servings, whether you use Rainforest Nut or Celestial Teas or Breakfast Blend.“

CoffeeGeek - Bodum Santos Electronic - Lin Phillips's Review (#)

„I first learned of vacuum brewing from Coffee Kid cum Coffee Geek (he rocks).  Apparently vacuum brewing was the standard coffeemaking method in America earlier this century, before instant coffee, percolators, and auto-drip methods took over.  These methods placed convenience over quality and people eventually forgot what coffee is *supposed* to taste like.  Nowadays it looks like vacuum brewing is making a comeback in the States (it never went out of style in Europe and Asia) as people rediscover the taste of quality.“

Because of human rights issues and concerns about longevity based on reviews of other percolators that were manufactured there, that was an unpleasant surprise. But it comes with a one year warranty, so hopefully... After doing some research it appears that with the exception of Dualit, ALL percolators are made in China.“

„And there's grinders and a bit on home roasters too. You'll find Cona brewers, presspots (cafetiere), percolators, espresso machines, and a mysterious British sock brewer called "the biggin". The quality of the photographs and the full-color printing are outstanding, and as a pictorial history of coffeemakers it is unmatched. This book is very low-priced considering the quality.“

„It's like moving up a ladder, a coffee hierarchy of needs, as it were. With greater awareness, involvement, choice and sophistication, the next step, to home brewing, is inevitable.But we're not talking coffee brewing with electric coffeemakers, French press or percolators. Oh no! We're talking home roasting and brewing with all the bells and whistles, or rather, hissing steam.“

The many methods of brewing coffee - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada (#)

„For those who grew up with the 1950s appliance, the aroma a percolator emits may be reason enough to own one. Percolators face an iffy future. Many manufacturers have dropped the model from their product lines because better educated consumers have learned boiling coffee isn't the most flavorful means of brewing. "Boiling coffee destroys the flavor," Newell says.“

„Once universal in the U.S., percolators fell into disfavor as coffee connoisseurship spread. A percolator boils water, forcing it up a metal tube from which it emerges to spray over ground coffee contained in a metal filter attached to the tube's top. This boil-up, filter-down process continues until coffee reaches its desired strength.“

„Although, I must say, I resent having to wake up at the crack of dawn to make coffee for them, as the machine itself seems to mystify them both. They're used to the old-fashioned percolators. I have found something new that connects me to my family. Now when I go home for a visit, and they are making the morning's coffee, they add two cups for me.“

CoffeeGeek - Solis Maestro Grinder - Jacob McDonald's Review (#)

„The only disadvantage to this one, and it's really a small disadvantage, is that it cannot grind coarse enough for percolators. Yes, I know percolators don't make great coffee compared to espresso machines, but when you have a lot of guests that don't know the difference, well... ;o)“
